which to pick?

i like the neuspeed race springs but want to go lower. I searched and came up wanting either ground control coilovers or save and later get omni power coilover. Which one do most people on here like regardless of price? I just want to slam it without having to go bags etc.

Mike04Civic is an unknown quantity at this point
correct me if I'm wrong, but arent the ground control coil-overs, made for the 7th Gen civics, supposed to be designed to work with our stock shocks?

Eliminating the process of buying after market shocks.....that would be a big factor to me...

"Ground Control Coilover Kit for Honda Civic 2001
Height Reduction Range - 0"-2.5", Include bump stops.
Note: This Kit will only fit Stock, Sachs, Boge Shocks.
Ground Control Adjustable Coilover Kits allows you the option to customize the ride height of your vehicle. Unlike other spring kits that require removal of the strut assembly, the unique design of the Ground Control kit allows for quick, easy adjustment. Simply lift the corner(s) to be adjusted and spin the adjuster up or down to raise or lower the vehicle. Ground Control spring kits are designed to be used with either stock or aftermarket shocks.

All height adjustable kits feature Eibach Springs. These high quality springs offer a lifetime warranty against defects. All adjusters consist of a threaded sleeve and adjustable spring seat and are made using 6061 aluminum, anodized for greater durability and appearance. All other adapter hardware is machined from the same high strength 6061 T-6 aluminum.
Note: This Kit will only fit Stock, Sachs, Boge Shocks. Tech note: For the Front, trimming of stock spring seat allows added range of adjustment"

Just because it fits them doesn't mean its smart to do it.
Its the stupidest thing you could do.
Using GCs without a set of KONIS is not a smart idea.
